The DEAP-3600 detector searches for the scintillation signal from dark matter particles scattering on a 3.3 tonne liquid argon target. The largest background comes from $^{39}$Ar beta decays and is
Interplay of anionic quasi-atom and interstitial point defects in electrides: abnormal interstice occupation and colossal charge state of point defects in dense FCC-lithium. (arXiv:2103.07605v1 [cond-mat.mtrl-sci])
Electrides are an emerging class of materials with highly-localized electrons in the interstices of a crystal that behave as anions. The presence of these unusual interstitial quasi-atom (ISQ) electrons leads
Construction and On-site Performance of the LHAASO WFCTA Camera. (arXiv:2012.14622v1 [physics.ins-det])
The focal plane camera is the core component of the imaging air Cherenkov telescopes. Because of the capability of working under moonlight without aging, silicon photomultipliers (SiPM) have been proved
Semantic Segmentation with a Sparse Convolutional Neural Network for Event Reconstruction in MicroBooNE. (arXiv:2012.08513v1 [physics.ins-det])
We present the performance of a semantic segmentation network, SparseSSNet, that provides pixel-level classification of MicroBooNE data. The MicroBooNE experiment employs a liquid argon time projection chamber for the study
High-performance Generic Neutrino Detection in a LArTPC near the Earth’s Surface with the MicroBooNE Detector. (arXiv:2012.07928v1 [hep-ex])
Large Liquid Argon Time Projection Chambers (LArTPCs) are being increasingly adopted in neutrino oscillation experiments because of their superb imaging capabilities through the combination of both tracking and calorimetry in
Influences of sinusoidal density modulation on stimulated Raman scattering in inhomogeneous plasmas. (arXiv:2011.05593v1 [physics.plasm-ph])
The influence of sinusoidal density modulation on the stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) reflectivity in inhomogeneous plasmas is studied by three-wave coupling equations, fully kinetic Vlasov simulations and particle in cell
Measurement of Space Charge Effects in the MicroBooNE LArTPC Using Cosmic Muons. (arXiv:2008.09765v2 [physics.ins-det] UPDATED)
Large liquid argon time projection chambers (LArTPCs), especially those operating near the surface, are susceptible to space charge effects. In the context of LArTPCs, the space charge effect is the
Multi-system Bayesian constraints on the transport coefficients of QCD matter. (arXiv:2011.01430v1 [hep-ph])
We study the properties of the strongly-coupled quark-gluon plasma with a multistage model of heavy ion collisions that combines the T$_\mathrm{R}$ENTo initial condition ansatz, free-streaming, viscous relativistic hydrodynamics, and a

Neutrino Event Selection in the MicroBooNE Liquid Argon Time Projection Chamber using Wire-Cell 3-D Imaging, Clustering, and Charge-Light Matching. (arXiv:2011.01375v1 [physics.ins-det])
An accurate and efficient event reconstruction is required to realize the full scientific capability of liquid argon time projection chambers (LArTPCs). The current and future neutrino experiments that rely on
